v0.0.1Recess

manager = require('catalog_manager');

Usage
Recess is simply a helper for building an application on top of Card-Catalog. It provides a clean interface to setting up categories and cards as well as some helpers attached to the request and response object.
Available helper methods on a recess object are:
set: options for instantiating a Category
app.set('setting', 'value');
before: middleware function to run before dispatching to a Category instance.
app.before(function(req, res, next) {});
card: a Card to use in your Card-Catalog app.
app.card(Manager);
create: initialize a catalog by loading all the available cards and setting up a template cache. Emits a ready
event when the catalog has been built.
listen: create an http server and listen on a given port.
app.listen(process.env.PORT);
For more information view the documentation on the Card-Catalog project
Tests
All tests are written in mocha and should be run with npm.
$ npm test
